In Iraq, American soldiers went door-to-door kicking them in and took all weapons they could find. Now the Iraqi people are all easy victims of insurgents. The same thing happened in Nazi Germany but the Nazis had gun registration to help them out so they'd know which homes had guns.
If they had weapons, things would most likely be a lot more stable and peaceful in Iraq. You know the old saying, "If everyone's got a gun, people are more polite". The indisputable fact remains that individuals have a right to keep and bear arms and this right didn't come from government. We were born with this right. No person or group of people, regardless of their number or what they call themselves (including government) has any legitimate right or authority to infringe upon this or any of our other individual rights.

Yes, they were. People were born with the right to use any weapon that they can honestly acquire for DEFENSE. This is true whether the weapons of the time are bows & arrows, guns, or death ray guns in the future.

When you have to create an outrageous and bizarre narrative to support your point of view, that's not critical thinking.

I guess it's a good thing I didn't create an outrageous and bizarre narrative and merely made a statement of fact.
